Marthe Cohn

When: Wed., Sept. 18

As you can imagine, Marthe Cohn, an undercover Jewish spy in Nazi Germany during World War II, has a remarkable story. With her sister imprisoned at Auschwitz concentration camp and her family having fled to escape arrest, she posed as a nurse to slip behind enemy lines and collect intelligence on Nazi troop movements and locations—risking her life and changing the outcome of World War II. Tonight at 6:30 at Case Western Reserve University’s Maltz Performing Arts Center (MPAC), Cohn, 99, will speak about her experiences. Tickets are free but reservations are required. More information is available on the Chabad at CWRU website. (Niesel)
